[Asterisk-Users] Music on hold

[Wiley E. Siler]

Did you transfer the mp3s to the * box via FTP?  If so, did you use
binary not ascii mode?
Ascii mode will mess the files up every time. Explicitly call binary
then your mget so your files don't get hosed.

Also, if your musiconhold.conf file has a good reference to where your
mp3s are located...
default => quietmp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3,-Z

Then are you calling the context from your extensions.conf file
correctly?
I use this extension just so I can test that the music is there...
;
;MUSIC ON HOLD EXTENSION
;
exten => 6000,1,Answer 
exten => 6000,2,SetMusicOnHold(default) 
exten => 6000,3,MusicOnHold()
exten => 6000,4,Hangup

Dialing from my SIP phone produces tunes as expected and can of course
also be verified afterwards via in incoming call put on hold...

I have tried it with this mpg123 version as well:
---
High Performance MPEG 1.0/2.0/2.5 Audio Player for Layer 1, 2 and 3.
Version 0.59r (1999/Jun/15). Written and copyrights by Michael Hipp.


Still silence, but a mpg123 process is running.
Used codec is ulaw.


Thanks, Mario
